SDP five cleared
By Kor Kian Beng, Political Correspondent

THREE leaders and two supporters of the opposition Singapore Democratic Party (SDP) were acquitted in court on Tuesday of the charge of taking part in an illegal march in 2007.

The SDP leaders were Mr Gandhi Ambalam, chairman; Mr John Tan, assistant secretary-general; and Ms Chee Siok Chin, central executive committee member. The supporters were Mr Yap Keng Ho and Mr Chong Kai Xiong.

The five were cleared of charges of taking part in a procession without a valid permit on Sept 16, 2007. If convicted, they would have faced a fine of up to $1,000 for the offence under the Miscellaneous Offences (Public Order & Nuisance) Act.

District Judge John Ng, in a written judgment, said he acquitted the five on the sole ground that he did not consider what they had done a 'procession'.

'The prosecution's position appears to be that so long as a group of five or more people walked from one point to another point in a public place to commemorate an event, the people in that group had participated in a procession for the purposes of the Act...I am not able to agree with such a simplistic interpretation of the word 'procession',' he wrote.

The walk by the SDP five was held to mark the first anniversary of a similar protest planned for September 2006, when the International Monetary Fund and World Bank meetings were held in Singapore.

whether the magistrate charged, jailed or screwed sdppies disciples, there would always be some far fetched comments from those clowns. if they had broken the law, then they would be charged. when they were charged, they would rant like loudhailers as though they were higher than the law.

now they were set free. magistrate was too sianz with their looney antics. he knew they were broke to poor or even got money also refused to pay. jailing them would be wasting the country's rice.

the wise magistrate decided to free them. such a kind and compassionate magistrate! even after freeing them, they wasn't any words of thanks or appreciationg. the rantings continued.....

typical sdppies disciple - whether u jailed them or free them, there is always lame comments. they are still thinking they are the law and above the law.

CRAPS IS WHAT THEY REALLY ARE!
